Description
PORTE-SATELLITES A CAGE POUR UN REDUCTEUR DE VITESSE A CAGE SATELLITE HOLDER FOR A SPEED REDUCER A
TRAIN EPICYCLOÏDAL EPICYCLOIDAL TRAIN
Domaine de l'invention Field of the invention
La présente invention concerne notamment un porte-satellites pour un réducteur de vitesse à train épicycloïdal, ce porte-satellites comportant une cage de réception du solaire et des satellites du réducteur. Etat de la technique The present invention relates in particular to a planet carrier for an epicyclic gear speed reducer, this planet carrier comprising a solar receiving cage and gearbox satellites. State of the art
L'état de la technique comprend notamment le document US-A1 - 2015/0247566. Un réducteur de vitesse à train épicycloïdal d'une turbomachine d'aéronef comprend classiquement un solaire accouplé à un premier arbre et une couronne s'étendant autour du solaire. Des satellites sont disposés entre le solaire et la couronne et sont engrenés avec eux et portés par un porte- satellites accouplé à un second arbre. The state of the art includes the document US-A1 - 2015/0247566. An epicyclic gear speed reducer of an aircraft turbine engine conventionally comprises a sun coupled to a first shaft and a ring extending around the sun. Satellites are arranged between the solar and the crown and are meshed with them and carried by a planet carrier coupled to a second shaft.
Il existe plusieurs types de porte-satellites. La figure 1 illustre un porte- satellites 10 à rouet en porte-à-faux, décrit dans la demande FR-A1 -3 036 763. Ce porte-satellites 10 comprend un corps cylindrique 12 destiné à être accouplé au second arbre et relié à une extrémité longitudinale à une paroi annulaire 14 de support d'axes 1 6 parallèles de rotation des satellites 18. Les axes 16 sont régulièrement répartis autour de l'axe A de rotation du porte-satellites et sont solidaires à l'une de leurs extrémités longitudinales de la paroi annulaire 14 précitée. Un rouet 20 est rapporté et fixé à leurs extrémités longitudinales opposées et fixées à ces dernières. Ce rouet 20 comprend des moyens de lubrification à la fois des paliers montés entre les
axes 1 6 et les satellites 18, et des dents d'engrènement des satellites 18 et du solaire 22. There are several types of carriers. FIG. 1 illustrates a planet carrier 10 with a cantilever wheel, described in application FR-A1 -3 036 763. This planet carrier 10 comprises a cylindrical body 12 intended to be coupled to the second shaft and connected to a longitudinal end to an annular wall 14 supporting axes 16 parallel to the rotation of the satellites 18. The axes 16 are regularly distributed around the axis A of rotation of the planet carrier and are integral at one of their ends longitudinal of the annular wall 14 above. A wheel 20 is attached and fixed at their opposite longitudinal ends and fixed thereto. This wheel 20 comprises means for lubricating both the bearings mounted between the axes 1 6 and satellites 18, and meshing teeth of satellites 18 and solar 22.
La figure 2 illustre une autre technologie de porte-satellites 30 à cage, le rouet 32 étant rapporté sur la cage 34 et n'étant donc pas monté en porte- à-faux. La cage 34 comprend deux parois annulaires 36, 38 sensiblement parallèles et coaxiales et une paroi cylindrique 40 reliant les parois annulaires 36, 38 à leur périphérie externe. Une première 36 des parois annulaires est reliée au corps 42 précité et la seconde 38 reçoit le rouet 32. Comme dans le cas précédent, ce rouet 32 comprend des moyens de lubrification à la fois des paliers montés entre les axes et les satellites, et des dents d'engrènement des satellites et du solaire. Figure 2 illustrates another cage carrier technology 30 cage, the wheel 32 being attached to the cage 34 and therefore not mounted cantilever. The cage 34 comprises two annular walls 36, 38 substantially parallel and coaxial and a cylindrical wall 40 connecting the annular walls 36, 38 at their outer periphery. A first 36 of the annular walls is connected to the aforementioned body 42 and the second 38 receives the impeller 32. As in the previous case, this impeller 32 comprises means for lubricating both the bearings mounted between the axes and the satellites, and meshing teeth of satellites and solar.
Cette seconde technologie, de porte-satellites à cage, est avantageuse dans la mesure où le rouet reprend moins d'efforts et est donc moins sollicité en fonctionnement. Par ailleurs, le montage du rouet est ici plus aisé et nécessite des outillages moins complexes que pour un porte- satellites à rouet en porte-à-faux. Cependant, un porte-satellites à cage de la technique actuelle est relativement encombrant en direction axiale. Le rouet rapporté sur la cage du porte-satellites est en outre soumis à des phénomènes d'usure de contact {fretting) au niveau de ses interfaces avec les autres pièces, qui limitent sa durée de vie. This second technology, cage carrier planet, is advantageous to the extent that the wheel takes less effort and is less stressed in operation. Furthermore, the mounting of the wheel is here easier and requires tools less complex than for a door-wheel carrier cantilever. However, a cage carrier of the current technique is relatively bulky in the axial direction. The impeller attached to the cage of the planet carrier is also subject to contact wear phenomena (fretting) at its interfaces with other parts, which limit its service life.
La présente invention propose un perfectionnement à cette seconde technologie, qui apporte une solution simple, efficace et économique à au moins un de ces problèmes. Exposé de l'invention
Conformément à l'invention, on parvient à cet objectif avec un porte- satellites pour un réducteur de vitesse à train épicycloïdal de turbomachine, ledit porte-satellites comprenant une cage définissant un espace interne de montage d'un solaire central d'axe A de rotation et d'une rangée annulaire de satellites disposés autour de l'axe A et engrenés avec ledit solaire, ledit solaire comportant des moyens d'accouplement à un premier arbre, ladite cage comportant deux parois annulaires sensiblement parallèles centrées sur ledit axe A et une paroi cylindrique reliant lesdites parois annulaires à leur périphérie externe, une première desdites parois annulaires étant reliée à un corps sensiblement cylindrique comportant des moyens d'accouplement à un second arbre, caractérisé en ce qu'une seconde desdites parois annulaires est formée d'une seule pièce avec des moyens de lubrification, qui comprennent une gorge annulaire de réception d'huile formée dans ladite seconde paroi et s'étendant à la périphérie d'une ouverture centrale centrée sur l'axe A de la seconde paroi, ladite gorge annulaire débouchant radialement vers l'intérieur. The present invention provides an improvement to this second technology, which provides a simple, effective and economical solution to at least one of these problems. Presentation of the invention According to the invention, this objective is achieved with a planet carrier for a turbomachine epicyclic gear train, said planet carrier comprising a cage defining an internal mounting space of a central solar axis A of rotation and an annular row of satellites arranged around the axis A and meshing with said solar, said solar having means for coupling to a first shaft, said cage comprising two substantially parallel annular walls centered on said axis A and a cylindrical wall connecting said annular walls to their outer periphery, a first of said annular walls being connected to a substantially cylindrical body having means for coupling to a second shaft, characterized in that a second of said annular walls is formed of a single piece with lubrication means, which comprise an annular oil receiving groove formed in said dry wall wave and extending at the periphery of a central opening centered on the axis A of the second wall, said annular groove opening radially inwards.
L'intégration des moyens de lubrification directement dans la cage permet de supprimer le rouet de la technique antérieure et de ce fait de réduire l'encombrement axial du porte-satellites. The integration of the lubrication means directly in the cage eliminates the wheel of the prior art and thus reduce the axial size of the planet carrier.
Le porte-satellites selon l'invention peut comprendre une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, prises isolément les unes des autres, ou en combinaison les unes avec les autres : The planet carrier according to the invention may comprise one or more of the following features, taken separately from each other, or in combination with each other:

- ladite gorge est en communication fluidique avec des canaux et des conduits formés dans ladite seconde paroi et s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur depuis ladite gorge ;
- lesdits canaux ont leurs extrémités radialement externes qui sont raccordées à des extrémités longitudinales de gicleurs de lubrifiant, les gicleurs de lubrifiant s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement audit axe A ;said groove is in fluid communication with channels and ducts formed in said second wall and extending radially outwardly from said groove; said channels have their radially external ends which are connected to longitudinal ends of lubricant nozzles, the lubricant nozzles extending substantially parallel to said axis A;
- lesdits conduits ont leurs extrémités radialement externes qui sont raccordées à des extrémités radiales internes de tubes d'alimentation en lubrifiant desdits satellites ; said ducts have their radially external ends which are connected to internal radial ends of lubricant supply tubes of said satellites;
- chacun desdits tubes est monté dans un alésage radial de ladite seconde paroi et traverse un axe de support d'un desdits satellites ; each of said tubes is mounted in a radial bore of said second wall and passes through a support axis of one of said satellites;
- chacun desdits tubes comprend une fente longitudinale ou en ensemble de perçages en communication avec une cavité interne dudit axe de support ; each of said tubes comprises a longitudinal slot or a set of bores in communication with an internal cavity of said support axis;
- chacun desdits tubes traversent un couvercle rapporté et fixé sur ladite seconde paroi, ledit couvercle supportant une extrémité longitudinale dudit axe de support ; et each of said tubes passes through an attached cover and fixed on said second wall, said cover supporting a longitudinal end of said support axis; and
- des ailettes sensiblement radiales sont disposées dans ladite gorge ; ces ailettes facilitent l'écoulement radial de lubrifiant depuis la périphérie interne de la gorge jusqu'à sa paroi de fond. - substantially radial fins are disposed in said groove; these fins facilitate the radial flow of lubricant from the inner periphery of the groove to its bottom wall.
La présente invention concerne également une turbomachine comporte un réducteur de vitesse à train épicycloïdal dont le porte-satellites est tel que décrit ci-dessus. The present invention also relates to a turbomachine comprising an epicyclic gear speed reducer whose planet carrier is as described above.
La turbomachine peut comprendre des moyens d'alimentation en lubrifiant de ladite gorge, qui comprennent une série d'injecteurs qui sont disposés autour dudit axe A et qui traversent ladite ouverture. Les injecteurs sont de préférence configurés pour pulvériser du lubrifiant radialement vers l'extérieur directement dans ladite gorge. The turbomachine may comprise means for supplying lubricant to said groove, which comprise a series of injectors which are arranged around said axis A and which pass through said opening. The injectors are preferably configured to spray lubricant radially outwardly directly into said groove.

Les orifices 146 servent au montage des axes 148 de rotation des satellites 150 schématiquement représentés à la figure 7. Les axes 148 sont parallèles à l'axe A et sont montés dans la cage 134 par translation axiale en passant par les orifices 146. Ils sont fixés à leurs extrémités longitudinales sur les parois 136, 138, respectivement. Comme cela est visible à la figure 4, dont le plan de coupe traverse axialement un axe 148, cet axe 148 est solidaire d'un palier lisse 149 autour duquel est monté le satellite 150. L'axe 148 est creux et comprend une cavité cylindrique interne 152. L'axe 148 et le palier 149 sont traversés par au moins un conduit radial 154 qui débouche à son extrémité radialement interne dans la cavité 152, et à son extrémité radialement externe dans une rainure longitudinale 156 de la périphérie du palier (figures 3 et 4). The orifices 146 serve to mount the axes 148 of rotation of the satellites 150 schematically represented in FIG. 7. The axes 148 are parallel to the axis A and are mounted in the cage 134 by axial translation via the orifices 146. They are fixed at their longitudinal ends on the walls 136, 138, respectively. As can be seen in FIG. 4, whose cutting plane passes axially through an axis 148, this axis 148 is integral with a sliding bearing 149 around which the satellite 150 is mounted. The axis 148 is hollow and comprises a cylindrical cavity 152. The axis 148 and the bearing 149 are traversed by at least one radial duct 154 which opens at its radially internal end in the cavity 152, and at its radially external end in a longitudinal groove 156 of the periphery of the bearing (FIGS. 3 and 4).
Bien que cela ne soit pas visible, les satellites 1 50 montés à rotation sur les axes 148 ont leurs périphéries externes qui traversent en partie les lumières 143 en vue de leur engrènement avec une couronne externe du réducteur destinée à entourer la cage 134. Although this is not visible, the satellites 1 50 rotatably mounted on the axes 148 have their outer peripheries which partially pass through the slots 143 for meshing with an external ring gear of the gearbox intended to surround the cage 134.
Les satellites 150 engrènent avec le solaire 151 qui comprend des cannelures rectilignes internes d'accouplement à un autre arbre tel qu'un arbre de turbine.
L'ouverture centrale 144 est délimitée extérieurement par une partie annulaire surépaissie de la paroi 138 dans laquelle est formée une gorge annulaire 158. Cette gorge 158 s'étend autour de l'axe A et débouche radialement vers l'intérieur. Sa paroi de fond radialement externe comprend des orifices en communication fluidique avec des canaux radiaux 1 60 d'une part, et des conduits radiaux 1 62 d'autre part. The satellites 150 mesh with the solar 151 which comprises internal rectilinear splines coupling to another shaft such as a turbine shaft. The central opening 144 is delimited externally by a thickened annular portion of the wall 138 in which is formed an annular groove 158. This groove 158 extends around the axis A and opens radially inwards. Its radially outer bottom wall comprises orifices in fluid communication with radial channels 1 60 on the one hand, and radial ducts 1 62 on the other hand.
À l'intérieur de la gorge 158 peuvent être disposées des ailettes 1 64 sensiblement radiales pour faciliter l'écoulement radial de lubrifiant depuis la périphérie interne de la gorge jusqu'à sa paroi de fond et les orifices précités. Inside the groove 158 may be disposed substantially radial fins 1 64 to facilitate the radial flow of lubricant from the inner periphery of the groove to its bottom wall and the aforementioned orifices.
Dans l'exemple représenté, le nombre de canaux 1 60 est égal au nombre de conduits 162 qui est égal au nombre d'axes 148 et de satellites 150. Ce nombre est ici de cinq. Les canaux 1 60 sont régulièrement répartis autour de l'axe A et les conduits 1 62 sont régulièrement répartis autour de l'axe A, chaque conduit 1 62 étant disposé entre deux canaux 1 60 adjacents. Les conduits et canaux sont formés dans des surépaisseurs 1 65, 166 de la paroi 138. Les surépaisseurs 1 65 dans lesquelles sont formés les canaux 1 60 s'étendent radialement vers l'extérieur depuis la surépaisseur 1 68 dans laquelle est formée la gorge 158. Les surépaisseurs 166 dans lesquelles sont formés les conduits 1 62 s'étendent radialement entre la surépaisseur 1 68 et des bossages 170 de la paroi 138 dans lesquels sont formés les orifices 146. In the example shown, the number of channels 1 60 is equal to the number of conduits 162 which is equal to the number of axes 148 and satellites 150. This number is here five. The channels 1 60 are regularly distributed around the axis A and the ducts 1 62 are regularly distributed around the axis A, each duct 1 62 being disposed between two adjacent channels 1 60. The ducts and channels are formed in extra thicknesses 1 65, 166 of the wall 138. The extra thicknesses 1 65 in which are formed the channels 1 60 extend radially outwardly from the excess thickness 1 68 in which the groove 158 is formed. The extra thicknesses 166 in which the conduits 1 62 are formed extend radially between the excess thickness 1 68 and bosses 170 of the wall 138 in which the orifices 146 are formed.
Chacun des canaux 1 60 communique à son extrémité radialement externe avec une extrémité longitudinale d'un gicleur tubulaire 172 visible notamment aux figures 4 et 5. Les gicleurs 172 ont une forme allongée et s'étendent parallèlement à l'axe A. Ils sont au nombre de cinq et régulièrement répartis autour de l'axe A en étant chacun disposés entre
deux axes 148 adjacents. Ils sont montés par translation axiale à travers des orifices traversants de la paroi 1 38. Ils comprennent chacun une cavité interne longitudinale 1 74 dont une extrémité longitudinale est en communication fluidique avec un canal 1 60. Chaque gicleur 1 72 comprend en outre des orifices 1 76 sensiblement radiaux, répartis sur sa longueur, qui débouchent dans la cavité 1 74. Le lubrifiant amené par les canaux 1 60 jusqu'aux gicleurs 1 72 est destiné à être pulvérisé sur les dentures des satellites 1 50 et du solaire 1 51 en fonctionnement (cf. flèches de la figure 5, ainsi que la figure 7). Each of the channels 1 60 communicates at its radially outer end with a longitudinal end of a tubular nozzle 172 visible in particular in Figures 4 and 5. The nozzles 172 have an elongate shape and extend parallel to the axis A. They are at number of five and regularly distributed around the axis A being each arranged between two axes 148 adjacent. They are mounted by axial translation through through orifices of the wall 1 38. They each comprise a longitudinal internal cavity 1 74 whose longitudinal end is in fluid communication with a channel 1 60. Each nozzle 1 72 further comprises orifices 1 76 substantially radial, distributed along its length, which open into the cavity 1 74. The lubricant supplied by the channels 1 60 to the jets 1 72 is intended to be sprayed on the teeth of the satellites 1 50 and the solar 1 51 in operation (see arrows in Figure 5, as well as Figure 7).
Chacun des conduits 1 62 communique à son extrémité radialement externe avec une extrémité longitudinale d'un tube d'alimentation 1 78 visible à la figure 4. Les tubes 1 78 ont une forme allongée et s'étendent sensiblement radialement par rapport à l'axe A. Ils sont au nombre de cinq et régulièrement répartis autour de l'axe A en étant chacun engagé dans un alésage radial 1 80 traversant un bossage 1 70 et la surépaisseur 1 66 correspondante de la paroi 1 38. Les alésages 1 80 débouchent à leurs extrémités radialement externes sur la périphérie externe de la paroi 1 38 et les tubes 1 78 sont montés dans ces alésages par translation radiale depuis l'extérieur vers l'intérieur, jusqu'à ce que leurs extrémités radiales internes soient en communication fluidique avec les extrémités radialement externes des conduits 1 58, comme cela est visible à la figure 4. Des vis 1 82 sont alors vissées dans la paroi 138, et en particulier dans des orifices taraudés des bossages 1 70, pour immobiliser les tubes 1 78 dans les alésages 1 80. Une vis 1 82 peut traverser un orifice transversal 1 83 du tube 1 78 correspondant (figures 4 et 6). En variante, la vis 1 82 peut être remplacé par une goupille ou pion. Each of the ducts 1 62 communicates at its radially outer end with a longitudinal end of a feed tube 1 78 visible in Figure 4. The tubes 1 78 have an elongate shape and extend substantially radially relative to the axis A. They are five in number and regularly distributed around the axis A being each engaged in a radial bore 1 80 through a boss 1 70 and the corresponding thickness 1 66 of the wall 1 38. The bores 1 80 open to their radially outer ends on the outer periphery of the wall 1 38 and the tubes 1 78 are mounted in these bores by radial translation from the outside inwards, until their inner radial ends are in fluid communication with the radially external ends of the ducts 1 58, as can be seen in FIG. 4. Screws 1 82 are then screwed into the wall 138, and in particular into tapped orifices of s bosses 1 70, to immobilize the tubes 1 78 in the bores 1 80. A screw 1 82 can pass through a transverse hole 1 83 of the corresponding tube 1 78 (Figures 4 and 6). Alternatively, the screw 1 82 may be replaced by a pin or pin.
La figure 6 montre un tube 1 78. Ce tube 1 78 a une forme allongée et comprend une cavité longitudinale interne 1 84 dont une extrémité longitudinale débouche axialement et est destinée à être en communication
fluidique avec un conduit 1 62. L'autre extrémité longitudinale du tube est fermée. Le tube comprend une fente longitudinale 186, sensiblement en son milieu, qui communique avec la cavité 184. En variante, la fente 186 peut être remplacée par un ensemble de perçages. FIG. 6 shows a tube 1 78. This tube 1 78 has an elongate shape and comprises an internal longitudinal cavity 1 84 whose longitudinal end opens axially and is intended to be in communication fluidic with a conduit 1 62. The other longitudinal end of the tube is closed. The tube comprises a longitudinal slot 186, substantially in its middle, which communicates with the cavity 184. In a variant, the slot 186 may be replaced by a set of bores.
Des joints annulaires d'étanchéité 188 sont avantageusement prévus autour du tube. Un ou des premiers joints peuvent être situés à l'extrémité longitudinale ouverte du tube et destinés à coopérer avec la paroi 138, et d'autres joints peuvent être situés de part et d'autre de la fente 186 (ou des perçages), respectivement, et destinés à coopérer avec l'axe 148 correspondant (cf. figure 4). La fente 186 (ou les perçages) est destinée à déboucher dans la cavité 152 de cet axe 148 en vue de l'alimentation en lubrifiant de l'axe 148 et du palier 149. Le lubrifiant amené par les conduits 162 jusqu'aux tubes 178 est destiné à être injecté dans les cavités 152, puis à s'écouler à travers les conduits 154 jusqu'à la périphérie des paliers 149 (cf. flèches de la figure 4). Annular sealing seals 188 are advantageously provided around the tube. One or more seals may be located at the open longitudinal end of the tube and intended to cooperate with the wall 138, and other seals may be located on either side of the slot 186 (or holes), respectively and intended to cooperate with the corresponding axis 148 (see FIG. The slot 186 (or holes) is intended to open into the cavity 152 of this axis 148 for the supply of lubricant to the shaft 148 and the bearing 149. The lubricant supplied by the conduits 162 to the tubes 178 is intended to be injected into the cavities 152, then to flow through the ducts 154 to the periphery of the bearings 149 (see arrows in FIG. 4).
Dans l'exemple représenté, chaque tube 178 traverse également un couvercle annulaire 189 rapporté et fixé, par exemple par des vis, sur la paroi 138, du côté opposé aux satellites 150. Chaque couvercle 189 recouvre le bossage 170 correspondant de la paroi 138 et est destiné à centrer l'axe 148 correspondant dans l'orifice 146 de la paroi 138. In the example shown, each tube 178 also passes through an annular cover 189 attached and fixed, for example by screws, on the wall 138, on the opposite side to the satellites 150. Each cover 189 covers the corresponding boss 170 of the wall 138 and is intended to center the corresponding axis 148 in the orifice 146 of the wall 138.
La figure 7 montre les moyens d'alimentation en lubrifiant de la gorge 158, qui comprennent une série d'injecteurs 190, par exemple au nombre de cinq, qui sont disposés autour de l'axe A et traversent l'ouverture 144 de la paroi 138 de la cage 134. Les injecteurs 190 sont portés par un stator et pulvérisent du lubrifiant radialement vers l'extérieur directement dans la gorge 158, qui va ensuite s'écouler dans les canaux 1 60 et conduits 1 62, comme évoqué dans ce qui précède.
L'invention présente de nombreux avantages par rapport à la technique antérieure : un encombrement axial réduit, la suppression d'une pièce de fraisage (rouet) compliquée à usiner du fait de la cage qui est plus facile à usiner par tournage, moins d'hyperstatisme au montage, plus de problème de fretting dans le rouet, la possibilité de rapprocher les gicleurs du solaire, la rigidité augmentée du porte-satellites, les gicleurs plus courts et plus légers (moins de problèmes en dynamique), etc.
FIG. 7 shows the means for supplying lubricant to the groove 158, which comprise a series of injectors 190, for example five in number, which are arranged around the axis A and pass through the opening 144 of the wall 138 of the cage 134. The injectors 190 are carried by a stator and spray lubricant radially outwardly directly into the groove 158, which will then flow into the channels 1 60 and conduits 1 62, as mentioned in what above. The invention has many advantages over the prior art: a reduced axial size, the removal of a milling part (spinning wheel) complicated to machine because of the cage which is easier to machine by turning, less of mounting hyperstatism, more fretting problems in the spinning wheel, the possibility of bringing the sprinklers closer to the sun, the increased rigidity of the planet carrier, the shorter and lighter sprinklers (less dynamic problems), etc.
